BULL MOOSE HORNS AND HOOFS The name of the late Cornelius N. Bliss is, it appears, as serviceable to one side of the PenroSe-Archbold-Roosevelt imbroglio as to the other. A few days ago it seemed that the onus of relying upon a dead man for corroboration was falling a little too much on the side of the colonel's op ponents. The colonel was quick to see the force of a sentimental appeal to the public sense of justice which demands that 'the memory of the dead shall not be assailed. Neither Pen rose nor Archbold had done violence to the memory of Bliss. They had only placed him, in their narratives of events in 1904, where, as treas urer of the committee at that time, it was indispensable that he should, be placed in telling of the handling of R eal Estate Investments A farm, town, dwelling or acreage direct from the to pay assures purchaser bottom FARMS 8 acres, Clackamas Heights. 2 miles N.

The colonel, however, could not resist the temptation to fire the tender heart of a generous peo ple with wrath against all who call the dead to witness the truth of what they declare. If thi3 be sin, then its mark is also upon the colonel's door. William Loeb whom the colonel appointed as his private secretary after he had put George B, Cortelyou out of that of fice into the chair of the National Committee, was at Sagamore Hill, conferring with Cortelyou and the col onel. Then he issued a statement in which he declares that he remembers writing and sending, at the colonel's dictation, the letters and telegrams which the colonel lately produced as having passed from him to Cortelyou between the 26th and 29th of October. Loeb says; the first intimation the colonel had of the Standard Oil con tribution . was from the newspapers. Cortelyou, according to Loeb was strangely remiss in answering either letters or telegrams. Finally, at Mr. Roosevelt's order, Loeb called up Cor telyou by phone message and told him the colonel wanted to know what had been done about it. "Cortelyou's reply," says Loeb, "was that he had just finished consulting with Cornel ius N. Bliss, and that Bliss had assur ed him that no Standard Oil money had beer, contributed." This citation of the dead is no worse and no better than that made by Penrose and. Archbold. But Mr. Loeb goes distinctly farther than either Archbold or Penrose in the advantage he takes of dead men. Speaking of the Harriman contribu tion of that same year, and justifying the colonel's position at every point, Loeb, who continually insists that he has a most distinct recollection of all of the events in dispute, says: "I was present at the time Harriman made his visit to the White House. I made it a point always to be present when Mr. Harriman was received by the president." The meaning of this is clear and unmistakable. A dead man is being charged with the falsehood about a man in a defenseless posi tion with whom he is in conference, making it necessary to have a third party present as a witness. . No mat ter what may be the final outcome of this struggle between gentlemen, it can be said with confidence that, in the use and abuse of dead men as weapons, the colonel's party is now far ahead.- German Tongued Negroes.

Bona Fide Owner Stevens Building, Oregon City, Ore. Poured Into a Bottle of Sulphuric Acid Cornwallis, Ore., has a new Insectary L H. L. Hughes, editor of the Labor World, of Spokane, Wash., and an au thority on socialism, spoke to about fifty persons at Willamette Hall Tues day evening. W. W. Myers, Socialist candidate for county commissioner, introduced the speaker. Mr .Hughes declared that Socialism is gradually being adopted, and that although its growth was not rapid it was certain: He called attention to the public schools, the postal service, direct pri parmy, initiative and referendum in proof of his assertion that more pow er was gradually being placed in the hands of the people, which he said was the essence of socialism. The speaker made a pleasing appearance, and won the confidence of his audi ence, many members of which were not socialists, by his courteous refer ence to members of other political parties. T. R. PARTY DOES IWELL IN VERMONT (Continued from page 1) h "most marvelous fight." Democrats feel somewhat elated, too, for they show an increased vote, though not enough to elect their can didate. The result will not "be definitely known until well into the morning, for returns are being received very slowly- The day was rainy and anything but conductive to a full vote. However, the rock-ribbed party voters went to the polls in all manner . Of conveyan ces. ; The Prohibition and Socialist vote did not vary materially from former years. Many "Republican leaders asserted that the threatening weather contrib uted to the falling off in the party vote. These men stated that the re corded vote of Vermont was close to 120,000, and that had weather condi tions been fair the party would have rolled up more than 40,000 for Fletch er. The members of Congress elected were: First District, Frank L. Greene, of St. Albans (Rep.) ; Second District, Frank Plumley, of Northfield (Rep.) Belated Justice. In due time the women came into authority and power in the courts, and the first culprit haled before them for punishment was a man who had spent his life advocating dress reform for the fair sex. . "Wretch that you are." decreed the stern lady who presided on the beni-h. "the decision of the court is that for the term of your natural life you shall be permitted to wear none but blouses that button up the back and that you be compelled to button tbem yourself." London Tit-Bits: 1 ASK DECREES; 2 AWARDED THEM Alleging that her husband failed to support her and spent $750 of her sav ings, Cora A. Pieren filed suit Tues day for a divorce against Frank W.

OFFICERS OUSTED; SALEM, Or., Sept. 3. The officers of the Second battalion of the Third infantry of the Oregon National Guard, who failed promptly to obey orders at the annual maneuvers near Gates, Wash., are permanently dis missed from the service, but the men of the battalion are to be reinstated. This, is the order of Governor West, as commander-in-chief, issued today. In a statement the governor says: "Believing that the officers, of the Second battalion were the ones direct ly responsible for its failure promptly to obey certain orders of .the regimen tal commander during the recent man euvers near Gates, Wash., it is recom mended that the order of the general staff discharging from the service certain officers and enlisted men he modified so as to apply only to such officers." The dismissed officers are Major Ryland Scott, First Lieutenant Rich ard Deich, First Lieutenant Harry C. Brumbaugh, Captain Walter L. Tooze and Captain Harry Williams. After turning the wheels of law en forcement in the direction of - the breweries, and; receiving assurance from District Attorney Brown of Douglas county that action would be commenced immediately to revoke the charter of the Roseburg Brewery and Ice Company and sending a re quest to County Judge Bushey to re voke the license of a saloon being run just across the river from New berg, in Yamhill county, on the ground that it is a public nuisance, Govern or West left this morning on the 11:20 car for Portland, to resume his fight against vie in the metropolis. He made no announcement of what his next move in Portland would be, but he spent nearly all yesterday looking over material he has secured and studying various law points that bear on his efforts to clean up Ore gon. That this week's activities will largely center around the breweries that have been shipping beer into dry i territories, seems certain. In this way j the governor is endeavoring to get at I the source of the "blind pig" evil. PASTOR BRAVES DEATH TO RESCUE FAMILY PITTSBURG, Sept. 3. As commun ication with the afflicted flood sec tions becomes, established,, stories of herqjc and thrilling rescues become numerous. One particularly spectac ular feat was the rescue of Henry Endler, his wife and two children, of Avella, ini Washington County, by Revfl B. F. Heaney, pastor of the Presbyterian Church there. The Endler home was crashed against a railroad culvert and the fam ily washed down stream. Three chil dren were hurled on the bank and es caped, while Endler ,with his wife and two other children, succeeded in catching hold of . branches of a tree, where they were marooned. Heaney heard their cries and procured help. Getting a rope he fastened it around his waist, and, while some men held one end of it he plunged into the tor rent and made for the marooned fam ily. ' Eight times he was washed past the flood victims' refuges, and was hauled out to try it over again. Finally he reached the tree, the rope was fastened about Mrs. Endler and she was dragged through the tor rent to safety. To return the rope to the marooned pastor and the Endlers it was fastened to a huge block of wood, thrown in, so that it would be carried into the tree.One by one the family was taken to safety, Pastor Heaney being the last to leave the tree.

" PRISON FIRED BY (Continued from page 1) On seeing the fire department enter the prison yard, many mutineers fled back into' the prison, while others hid in the various factory buildings, hop ing to step over the walls when an opportunity presented itself. It. is said that three convicts scaled the walls and are now at large. Members of the two National Guard companies rushed to the prison in au tomobiles. They were ordered to shoot the first prisoner who attempted to scale the walls. - When the prisoners reached the yard they began burning everything within reach. The officials, fearing they would set the factories on fire, summoned the firemen, who aided in the attempt io subdue the rioters. Hundreds of shopmen and others were on the streets surrounding the prison, and the special police, hastily summoned, had trouble in keeping the crowds orderly.
